How Much Does a Typical Home Addition Cost?

There’s no such thing as the typical home addition. Every home and renovation project is unique. We would have to learn more about what you hope to achieve with your home addition before giving you a free estimate. Don’t let home addition costs deter you from making necessary improvements to your property. Adding a home office or sunroom, renovating your basement, or expanding your current kitchen, living room, or bathroom are all ways to make you the envy of the neighborhood and increase your curb appeal with potential buyers. Our home improvement contractors in Anne Arundel County would be happy to discuss the benefits of choosing us for all your home addition projects and more. We’d also be happy to give you room addition ideas for small homes.

Do You Do Anything Besides Home Additions?

Yes, we offer a wide range of home improvement services. Besides home and garage additions, we also specialize in kitchen and bathroom renovations, outdoor kitchens, structural certifications, and foundation repair. We also do commercial work for businesses throughout Maryland. Our team is licensed, bonded, insured, and experienced to provide whatever home improvement services you need.

What Is the Average Cost of Foundation Repairs?

Foundation repair costs will vary depending on the amount of work involved. For example, minor foundation cracks will cost a lot less to repair than a foundation issue involving house lifting. Arundel Home Improvement’s contractors provide everything from foundation repair and residential structural support to new block foundation construction and basement waterproofing services. All foundation work is certified by a licensed engineer and includes a sealed structural engineered certification upon the project’s completion. Whether you need a new slab foundation poured or a repair, give us a call!

How Long Will My Home Renovation Project Take?

Arundel Home Improvement completes renovation projects of all sizes. The amount of time your project will take depends on the variables involved. Is it a whole-home renovation or just one room? Which rooms are being remodeled? The size and scope of your project and our current workload will dictate the timeline, but most home renovations are completed in 4-8 months. If your project requires exterior renovations, the season and weather can also impact the projected timeframe. However, no matter the size of your job, we take pride in our ability to complete projects on-time and on-budget. From design to completion, you won’t be disappointed by our professionalism and commitment to completing quality work in a timely manner. There’s a reason why we maintain an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Check out our testimonials to see what other customers have said about working with us.

Will I Need to Hire an Architect First?

Why Should I Update My Kitchen or Bathroom?

Your family likely spends a lot of time in both the kitchen and the bathroom. When done right, kitchen and bathroom renovations add value to your home. Nobody wants to buy a home that has an outdated kitchen with dingy floors, stained countertops, or dismal cabinetry. Likewise, many people don’t want a bathroom with a tub that has seen better days. Even if space is at a premium in your home, our team can come up with creative ways to make your kitchen and bathroom appear bigger with more strategic storage space. We can help you save energy with better lighting and more efficient appliances. The possibilities are endless, no matter your budget. Let us help you redesign your house today!

What Are the Benefits of Adding an Outdoor Kitchen?

An outdoor kitchen makes cooking and entertaining more convenient. Outdoor kitchens usually feature low-maintenance, high-durability materials designed to withstand the elements. Adding a fire pit or premium grilling station gives you more options to entertain your guests and elevate the “wow” factor of your outdoor living space. Not only will you have extra space for dining and meal preparation, but it can help you save on energy costs and increase your home’s curb appeal. We’d be happy to help you brainstorm outdoor kitchen ideas to maximize your enjoyment of the great outdoors.

What Are Some Home Renovation Do’s and Don’ts?

Do stick to your budget and call a licensed professional for your home renovation. You may be tempted to cut costs by completing do-it-yourself projects, but if the work isn’t completed correctly, it can end up costing you more in the long term when you need repairs. Do stick to neutral colors and avoid following too many trends you see on HGTV. Fads come and go quickly, and if you end up wanting to sell your home, most buyers do not want a fixer-upper or a home with outdated colors. Please don’t skimp on quality when it comes to selecting materials. Remember, you usually get what you pay for in such cases.
